Hey Hey Hey Stampers! It's Friday! Yay!

This is my last creative post for the week. And I may just have saved the best for last...

Today's card features the Snow Crystal stamp set. I borrowed a greeting from the Sparkling Snowflakes stamp set as well.

Here is my fun fold:

How COOL is this!

It is a gatefold (of sorts) and it is super easy to make!
